thats the one dave was thinking of going for the mcrae rally car look so in your opinion whats the biggest problem im likely to encounter
was thinking with the wheel base prop shafts etc would need altering :thumbsup:
 
well depends on your budget really................

to go with vvt wiring loom from a new age sti would be hassle............ but possible.

also DCCD from same...............

then build away................

wiring loom time and man hours is the problem........

The build from wiring to engine and stripping of entire shell and reverse of removal etc could see 150-175 man hours ++........

then bare shell re-spray after strip would be a must if doing right........

reversal of removal and map.............. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

reality is that if done to utmost standard from body to power to highest standard to brakes/ wheels etc etc etc you wouldn't have much change outta 20-25k


obviously there are numorous in betweens...........
 
Cheaper just to buy the RS RA STi do the decals and keep her in tip top shape for the rest of your life.

Thats what I'd do.
